I would be so annoyed at having to make that choice and play under those limitations that my most likely response would be to say to hell with the game entirely. Just walking away would be the less bitter pill than losing all but one of my crew and only getting to play that one in an incomplete form. Taker of screenshots.

starro Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) Fun game question to look through.... at game launch... Issue 0 - 6 or 8 character slots per server and highest level was 40, right? Edit: 10! Found the link in old paragonwiki... Character Slot - Paragon Wiki Archive.

UltraAlt Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 It wouldn't be CoH if we only had one character. 1 2 If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore. (It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications) Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case. But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable. Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trick Arrow/Duel Pistols Defender - Ive been playing this combo for a bit now, and it's probably my favorite version of these power sets. It's stylish, effective, and has great flavor. It's not as "supportive" as most defenders are typified as being, but Ive played them up to 41 now, using mostly SOs only, and I havent like, needed anything outside of what normal progression has given me. If the HC devs were like "ok gang, NO MORE EXP unless you PAY" I could play this combo just fine and never level again and be totally fine. On 1/11/2022 at 2:45 PM, Troo said: Feel free to list one ranged & one melee. I think I'd stick with Stalker or Corruptor. Oh I get two?! Hmm... Street Justice/Super Reflexes Stalker OR Shield Defense/Super Strength Tanker. Ive played both of these to 44 now, and the stalker is just so stupidly stylish and fun I find it hard to quit or to recommend any other build for the stalker. Likewise, while my first tanker ever was an Elec/Elec Tanker here on HC, I've since tried SD/SS and it meets a lot of qualifiers for me to enjoy it. It's fairly stylish inherently since shields are just MORE customization, and the alternate animations on SS help keep the shield from looking tacked on. It's effective at what it needs to do, and if you need to pump your damage you can hit Rage, One with the Shield, and in combination with Against All Odds, for a couple precious minutes, you're THE MAIN CHARACTER of the game. Like, I have never felt MORE like a comic book superhero then when i've hit Alt+1, Alt+2 and gone to work. Now, maybe street justice is even cooler than this? But I havent made a SD/SJ tanker, and SJ's stamina consumption early on make me feel reluctant to suggest it on the already toggle heavy SD, which solves the stamina issue pretty. Combine this with Shield Charge, letting my reposition on demand? It's just really cool, and it's pretty much "finished" as a build waaaaaaay before 40, like, you could hit 33-34 and stop gaining XP and you'd miss very little. Those are my picks, I feel like... I might lean more heavily toward that tanker, since while that stalker is really cool they're very hard for me to play as a team player, since like, most AoE debuffs on teams tend to be slapped on the biggest, baddest guys? and as a Stalker my FIRST target is the biggest, baddest guy, so there's a lot of conflict there. Plus, in groups with a lot of melee going on, Assassin's Strike's charge up time can be less than ideal? And while the ability to be a team taxi is REALLY nice for fast runs? I think the flavor of the SD/SS tanker is way too enduring for me to say I'd prefer to play a stalker, even if it's got a lot more of a natural feel to its play. 1 Resident certified baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorDitko Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Ill+Storm is a hard combo to beat.

Mr. Apocalypse Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) I would do just like I did when I played Star wars galaxies, which limited you to one toon per account. I would have multiple accounts. At one point I was paying a monthy sub on 4 accounts. A jedi, A bounty hunter, an Armour-smith and a smuggler. but what I would chose for my main would always be my bot/drk mastermind Edited January 21, 2022 by jeolman1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Myshkin Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 What is this, WoW? Get out of here. I don’t have a crazy deep stable of characters, but even to give up half would be a struggle. There’s at least six that come to mind right away, so maybe I could settle on six? But now, just one would never happen. 1 Pylon Test Run Submission Proc Monsters (Controller Edition) Proc Monsters (Defender Edition) Pylon Test Run Results Proc Monsters (Tanker Edition) "Mad King Special" "Ceterum autem censeo Iram esse delendam" Mad King Special - Force Edition (NEW!)
